    • Hochbunkers in Munich
I started the photo essay "Baroque in Munich" within the framework of a photography class taught at the Bryan Peterson School of Photography. Our course was taught by fine art photographer and photo essayist Brenda Scott., who provided us with the tools for creating a photo essay and guided us through the process. I hope to continue working on this as an ongoing project. I feel  the genre of the photo essay adds a new dimension to images by putting them in context. Although each image in itself should be able to stand on its own, together with other photos and background information, it will often express more.

The initial photos used were all taken during the four weeks of class, January 2016. I turned to the Internet for background information. Here I found an overwhelming amount of information on the subject and stood before the choice as whether to take a scholarly approach or simply supply a minimal amount of information as orientation. I chose the latter and for the viewer whose curiosity has been aroused, I have added a selection of links in English that could be of interest.
